"The master's eyes are like a torch, in addition to coming to report what the apprentice has done during this time, the most important thing is to ask the master what I am doing...... Li Changan did not dare to deceive in the slightest, and immediately said with a pale face.

Liu Xiu's face was calm, he raised his hand slightly, and Li Changan, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't resist standing up, and immediately shook his head and said, "Have you forgotten what the master once said?" We don't have so many rules, don't kneel at every turn."

"Yes," Li Changan took a deep breath and nodded.

I don't know if I was infected by Liu Xiuyun's indifferent attitude, Li Changan's mood at the moment was magically calmed down.

With a flickering thought, Li Changan asked: "Master, why can you practice the same exercises here to fly away, but when you come to me, not only do you encounter a bottleneck and not get close at all, but gradually there is a horror of death surrounding you?" ”

If you don't understand this question, Li Changan not only has trouble sleeping and eating all the time, but he doesn't even know when and how he will die.

For him, this question may only be able to be answered by his own master, which is why he came non-stop after receiving the news of Liu Xiu's return yesterday.

Facing Li Changan's question, Liu Xiu smiled and raised his hand to point to the location of his heart.

Looking down at the place where Liu Xiu was pointing, Li Changan looked up at Liu Xiu again and said with a blank expression: "Heart? ”

Nodding and shaking his head again, Liu Xiu smiled: "Yes, it's a problem of the heart, strictly speaking, the problem of the mind has created your current predicament."

"Please also ask the master to solve your doubts," Li Changan said thoughtfully.

Liu Xiu told him a long time ago that it was best to talk about things when getting along, so Li Changan didn't play any twists and turns at this time.

didn't explain to Li Changan why he was in such a predicament for the first time, Liu Xiu looked at him and sighed slightly: "Little stone, you've been robbed!" ”

"Robbery?" Li Changan was stunned, what does this mean?

Nodding, Liu Xiu said: "Yes, robbery, but robbery is the same as the so-called luck, it is a very illusory thing, believe or not believe in fact it is not very meaningful, there is a saying that things are man-made, life in the world, there will always be all kinds of things, gradually, there is the so-called cause and effect, planting good causes and getting good results, and vice versa, how individuals deal with every accidental or inevitable event, will get different endings"

"Master, I don't understand, what does this have to do with the so-called catastrophe?" After hearing this, Li Changan shook his head and said blankly.

Liu Xiu still didn't answer this question head-on, and said to himself: "The so-called robbery is divided into three kinds, the heavenly catastrophe and the human robbery, I explain once again, the catastrophe is an ethereal thing, believe it or not, it doesn't mean much, don't see it as God's punishment or test for a person, but it is just the gradual evolution of one's own actions."

"The so-called human calamity, as the name suggests, is a crisis from others, such as you offend people because of various things, or there are treasures in your hands that cause others to covet, or even others look at you unpleasantly, and so on will cause a crisis, these crises can be called a catastrophe, over the natural leisure, can not be over, will be knocked down to the dust, heavy will die, this is the human disaster"

You can understand the earth calamity as a variety of dangerous places, but you have to go there for various reasons and encounter crises, these crises are either landslides and cracks affect this person, or they encounter terrifying beasts, or the place itself cannot survive, etc., whether the person who should survive or can survive depends on himself, others can't help, The ending is nothing more than passing or not being able to get through, so I won't say more."

"In the end, it's the catastrophe, well, it's the life and death crisis brought to you by the heavens, such as a meteor falling from the sky to crush you, a thunderbolt to kill ......you, and so on, this is the so-called catastrophe, don't look at it so mysterious, this situation should consider whether there is something in yourself that attracts these crises to you"

"The three tribulations of heaven, earth and man, have you made it clear enough for the teacher?" Finally, Liu Xiu looked at Li Changan and asked.

After listening carefully, Li Changan nodded and said: "It's clear to the disciples that the so-called three tribulations of heaven, earth and man are three different ways of crisis, and these crises are not illusory, but caused by their own reasons......

Speaking of this, Li Changan paused and asked, "So ......, master, what do you mean by saying this, I am in danger now?" Is it the so-called robbery? ”

"Not bad" Liu Xiu nodded, and then pouted and said, "Think about what you have done during this time, is there any danger that you don't have points in your heart?" And to be honest, with the current pattern of Jiannan Dao, even if the danger doesn't come to you, you will take the initiative to come up yourself, do you want me to say more? ”

Scratching his head, Li Changan thought about it, it was really like this, and then he asked again: "However, I understand the sense of crisis that surrounds me, but what does this have to do with my cultivation and self-cultivation skills?" ”

Smiling, Liu Xiu said: "Then let's go back to the topic before, your cultivation and self-cultivation skills are not progressing, or is it because there is something wrong with your heart, to be precise, there is a problem with your thinking, which has caused your cultivation to not make an inch of progress."

"I don't understand," Li Changan said bluntly.

It's right if you don't understand, I haven't thought about these things in a single way, but I saw those people who cultivated the cultivation of the body in Yijian Gorge and slowly figured it out......

While secretly saying in his heart, Liu Xiu said to Li Changan: "Do you remember what you said for your teacher before? Self-cultivation is a way to cultivate people's self-cultivation, not a way to obtain strength, power is only incidental, if you blindly seek the most strength, then you will put the cart before the horse."

After speaking, looking at Li Changan, who was still at a loss, Liu Xiu said angrily: "Still don't understand?" Okay, I've convinced you, let's put it this way, your current thinking doesn't adhere to the core purpose of self-cultivation at all, and the mentality and the exercises don't match, what progress do you want to make? If you don't regress, you're still lucky! ”

Hearing this, Li Changan ...... I'm even more at a loss, why is the exercise still in my state of mind? Is there any relationship between the two?

If you don't understand, you have to ask clearly, this is a question related to your future, Li Changan asked again: "Can the master explain it more clearly?" ”

I have to say that Liu Xiu is really a peaceful person, and he has enough patience, if he were someone else, he would directly use a stick to drive people away.

Patiently, Liu Xiu said: "The causal relationship between the state of mind and the practice is very complicated, I just explain it to you for three days and three nights, and I can't explain it clearly. Of course, as my apprentice, the only apprentice now, although I can't explain the cause and effect relationship to you, I can give you a little guidance on how to do it, how to break through yourself, and whether you succeed or not depends on yourself."

"Please teach the master" Li Changan seems to understand whether he understands or not.

Pointing at Li Chang'an, Liu Xiu said with an expression of being defeated by you: "How else can I teach?" I have you as an apprentice is really poured eight lifetimes of mold, didn't I say it very clearly before, the core purpose of self-cultivation is to be quiet and inactive, don't deliberately pursue the attached power, calm down, read more, be clear and reasonable, feel the breadth and beauty of heaven and earth, the mood has improved, and the work will be natural, now do you understand? ”

Speaking of this, Liu Xiu shook his head slightly and said: "Actually, I passed on the self-cultivation skills to you after you followed the teacher for so long, thinking that your state of mind had been polished to peace during that time, but when you first practiced the self-cultivation exercises, I saw that in fact, your state of mind did not meet the standards for practicing the self-cultivation exercises, and the gains from practicing for the first time were far lower than my expectations, but that is not a thing, as long as you continue to maintain your mentality, gradually and naturally fit the body-cultivation skills, and let you exterminate the Five Poisons Sect, In fact, it is also for you to punish evil and promote good at the same time to carry out a spiritual experience, heh......, who know that by now, your state of mind has actually been completely different from the cultivation of the body, so it is not unreasonable for you to cultivate an inch now! ”

Listening to Liu Xiu's words, Li Changan was silent.

In all fairness, does he really not know these truths? Actually, he should have known it himself, but he didn't think about it.

It's just that when he walked out of Qingliu Town and stepped into Linjiang City, he tasted the taste of power step by step, experienced the heroism of scolding Fang Xuan, and obtained the status of stirring up the storm with a word.

Now, let Li Changan let go of everything he has and return to the ordinary, he really can't do it, how many people in the world can let go of everything he has now?

After a moment of silence, Li Changan took a deep breath and looked at Liu Xiu with a wry smile: "Master, I can't do it, I still have a lot of ideas to complete, there are still a lot of things I haven't had time to do, I really can't do it."

"So, it's not that there's a problem with your self-cultivation, it's not that you have a problem, it's a problem that arises after the combination of the two, in the final analysis, it's your own mind that restricts the growth of your strength, let's put it this way, power is a terrible beast, and now your power is the beast that is about to get out of your control, you are afraid, you subconsciously don't want it to grow anymore, which has led to the dilemma that your cultivation is not close to now, so you understand?" Liu Xiu shook his head and said.

"Am I tying myself up? But I don't want to be bound, huh? Li Changan muttered.

Hey, Liu Xiu said: "This kind of bondage is not a question of whether you want to or not, but a matter of the soul, if your mood is not improved for a day, this subconscious bondage will not be released!" ”

Liu Xiu's words undoubtedly cut off Li Changan's back road, and his face suddenly turned pale.

"What should I do?" He muttered to himself.

If you can't let go of everything you have now, you can't improve yourself, and if you can't improve yourself, I'm afraid that everything you have now will become a thing of the past, it's a dead cycle!

Human calamity, calamity, your own calamity is really coming.

No wonder I can't get close to my cultivation, no wonder I vaguely feel a great terror, the root of everything is in myself!

Something is wrong with my heart......

Seeing Li Changan like this, Liu Xiu shook his head and got up, came to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come with me, who made me your master, although your master and I are a little lazy, but I can't really not be responsible for you, right?"

"Master, do you have a solution to my dilemma?" Li Changan looked up and said.

Liu Xiu, who walked outside the door, shook his head decisively and said, "No!" ”

The fact is that Liu Xiu really has a way to directly help Li Changan solve the dilemma, with his current cultivation and knowledge, it is not difficult to help Li Changan quickly rise to the transcendent level, but Liu Xiu will not do that, because if he does that, Li Changan will be comfortable, but Liu Xiu has to bear the cause and effect brought by helping him!

Let's put it this way, once Liu Xiu takes the initiative to help him solve the predicament, the situation will only become more serious, the so-called involvement of the whole body, the interference of external forces will only lead to too many variables, and pulling out the seedlings at once will not only make Li Changan's 'human robbery' more dangerous, but also not affect Liu Xiu himself, so why bother?

Therefore, everything still depends on Li Changan to solve it himself.

Coming to the door, Liu Xiu pointed to the snowy world and said: "Little stone, you see how vast this world is, you take a closer look, see it clearly, let go of your heart, don't restrain it, the cultivation of self-cultivation has created you now, but the cultivation of the body is not your own way, imitating the path taken by the teacher, you can only go this far, you have to learn to find your own way, mine is not suitable for you, why do you have to grasp the way of self-cultivation?" When you look at the problem from a different angle, you will find that you are not only bound by your own heart, but also by your own vision! ”

"Not only you, but also all the people who cultivate self-cultivation, they are not teachers, and if they follow the path they have walked for teachers, they will not be able to surpass me in any case, and even how far they can go along the road I have walked is a matter of course."

"You must be very envious of the power that the teacher has now, right? Hehe, to tell you the truth, at the beginning, I had power, and I was just a teacher for self-preservation, and when I was not worried about survival for the teacher, I knew then that there are so many beautiful things in the world in addition to power, and power is just a means and a tool, just enough, people must learn to be content, and it is precisely because of this that I don't know what level my strength is at now, because it doesn't matter at all."

"I say this, I'm not showing you off, and I don't need you to understand, I just want to tell you that now that you have your own ideas and goals, you should go the way you should go, follow my path, you are not me, my life is not your life, you will find that as you walk now, you have no way to go, because this is not the road you really want to take"

"I said that your catastrophe has arrived, you yourself have experienced, go through the catastrophe yourself, you will find the way you should go, the shackles of the soul are not shackles, if you can't get through, don't force it, try to save your life, recognize the reality, come back and continue to do chores for me, you think about it yourself"

After speaking, Liu Xiu patted Li Changan on the shoulder, turned around and entered the medical hall to continue to drink tea and read books leisurely......

Being like a mirror platform, where to stir up dust, this is a sentence in Taoist classics.

Liu Xiu has been able to come to this day smoothly, has he not been robbed? In fact, there is, but he knows how to be satisfied, which is in line with the Taoist idea of non-action, and his body is like a mirror, so he will naturally not get involved in this kind of dust.

If you think about everything in a good direction, see it, and do it, many times, it is obviously a disaster, but it may eventually become a good thing......
